What is a thoracic sprain?
That nagging pain between your shoulder blades? It might be more than just tight muscles. If you’ve recently had a sudden movement, an awkward twist, or a minor accident, and now you feel sore, stiff, or just plain off, it could be a thoracic sprain.
A thoracic sprain is a soft tissue injury that happens when the ligaments in the mid-back are overstretched or torn. These ligaments stabilize the vertebrae and protect the spine, so when they’re injured, the whole area can feel tender and restricted.
At Cavanaugh Chiropractic in Lafayette, we help patients find relief from injuries like these every day. The good news is you’re not stuck with mid-back pain forever, with the right care, you can get back to moving and living.
